RAILWAY RECEIvERsHIPs come high,
although they are a very common lux
ury. The Master in Chancery, to whom
was referred the matter of compensation
due the receivers and counsel of the
Wabash, ST. Louis and Pacific Railroad,
recommends the following allowances:
Thomas E. Tut and Solon Humphreys
receive each SIP, ,500-S225, 900; the
attorney for receivers, assisting the Gen
eral Solicitor, $1,000; another attorney,
1900; Farmers Loan and Trust Com
pany, as trustee, s., 500; a firm of law
yers, $500; another firm Of lawyers,
8, 500. Other solicitors and trustees
were psid an aggregate Of s60,CC0 more.
This makes grand total for receivers
and lawyers Of S3l1, 800. 1t is not prob
able that in any private business such
extravagaat expenditures would be toler
ated, but when railway gets into the
hands of court i is too often consid-
cred legitimate picking by the lawyers,
and the courts and their officers seldom
hurt the feelings Of the profession by In
timating that the charges for legal SER
vices are too high.

An annex building, for occupation by the
young women from abroad, who are stu
d ants at WitteDberg college, has just been
enclosed. II stands on the southwest cor
ner of the bend in Femciff avenue, in
front of the old Wittenberg building. and
just north Of the house formerly occupied
By President Helwig and now occupied. we
believe, by Professor Ebrenfeld. 1t is a
handsome and commodious frame structure
and will meet the present needs of the Wit
tenberg young women very nicely. But
this isn't the full measure Of WittenberS's
ex xoansiveness, as will be seen by this
Springfield special to the Ohio State Jour
nT:
|: is stated that the board of directors of
Witienberg college are considering plan
for erecting a special building for the theO-
logical department of the college, which Is
growing rapidly. 1t is said that Rev. n.
W. HANNA. graduate Of the college, con-
templates the donation of land In Nebraska
for the purpose. valued at nearly Si0.0 900.
provided the remainder can be raised by
the college. Ii is said that the special
building would cost about SIS. 900. Since
the college has been located in its new quar-
.ers it has grown very rapidly and is one of
the leading institutions OF the kind in the
country.
1t is evident that Wittenberg college is
rapidly growing into university.

Mr. Baldwin, of the Mt. Vernon Repub-
lican, and member Of the Ohio republi-
can executive committee. continues to make
robust suggestions to the new legislature
Here is bundle of them:
In addition TO the car. stove. the legisIs-
ture might tackle the two-cent-a-mile pas
senger rate. The railroad companies have
practically done this by placing 1000 mile
tickets on sale at $40, but We want if gen
eral and applicable to all. So far as the
Dow law proper is concerned. there need
be no monkeying at all. A five or six line
Act extending local option to townships
aud providing for high grade tax, is all
that is needed.

We have already alluded to the liberality
o. the Western Union Telegraph Company,
ia giving the abstract of the presidents 5
message to the press of the country, free of
telegraph tolls. The Ohio State Journal
says, further, that the entire message
(which was not nearly SO long as had been
preiicted,l was also telegraphed. free of
charge for tolls, ito ell the daily papers, in-
Guiding those not in the Associated Press"
We quote from the Journal as follows:
|; may not be generally known that this
company also furnishes election returns 10
the people in a manner that is practically
free. The old adage that corporations have
no souls is broken in this act of generosity.
and the monopoly is not so crushing after
all.
1t is quite proper that the Western Union
should treat the concerns which are its reg
uiar customers in this way: but this is not
the extent OF its llberality, which is. in
fact, shown not only to the press, whether
customers or not, but 10 the whole people.

JENNY liND'S BEGINNING.
A Delicate Swedish Girl. First Steps OF
the Road to Fame.

the Road to Fame.
Early in this century-lS20-there was
born to poor Swedish couple delicate
insignificant looking child. She was
christcned Jenny, the family name Of
Lind being added in the register almost as
an afierthOught, since il seemed hardly
possible that the child would oulliye It's
day Of baptism. Months passed: the lit
tie one lived, but could not be said to
thrive. Herr Lind, the father, had a
small school in Stockholm. He was as
sisted by his wife, who seems to have
taken almost no interest in her little
daughter. for as the baby grew into ca
pacity for walking ard moving about. II o
mother left her entirely To the care of An
ignorant woman, who locked the child in
room while she went ont to work.
But in the tiny. delicate frame OF this
baby was something which showed itself
even then as u spark of the divine fire
Before she could speak plainly the child
couid sing--not merely catchin. a tune
and carrying on the melody, but singing
so that passers by in the street beneath
the window of the room where the child
was kept under lock and key would pause
IN listen to the remarkable bird like notes
Presently, when the little girl had grown
io her 9th year. some one heard this mar
velous trilling and vocalization. and en-
tered the house to find out who wns the
scngstress. There she sat, perchc,l up in
the window, cold, hungry and pinchcd
looking, with Il tiny kitten in her arms. TO
whom-baby that size was-she was sing
ing ia a voice ike u thrush, taking every
note with hint of that dramatic finish
which made her in later years magnetic

: One of the Mormon bishops. who was
formerly connected with the Cleveland
Plain Dealer. asserts. publicly. that the
democratic party and the polygamists are
solid. The Memphis Appeal Indignantly

see. would certainly be crushed out by the
people of the country, without regard to

the pclygamOus MormoDs would be buried

party has plenty Of faui.s-we are opposed
t. it-but we believe that il has host OF

The Edmunds law becomes imperative
and polygamy will be sapctioned by the
laws OF Utah, and Federal authority will
